Review on πŸ’ͺ Xtozon 100 Pcs 1/4"-20 UNC Rivet Nuts: Zinc Plated Carbon Steel Inserts for Secure Threads by Matt Sirmons

work great Make sure you install them properly and they will serve you for years.

These rivets work just as well as anything I've used. As with any brand, it is important that you install and squeeze/pull them properly for them to function properly. Using my thin metal (sheet metal) rivet nut specialty tool, I usually set the rivet, loosen my tool a little, and do it again carefully to make sure it's tight. If it's tight I don't need to squeeze/pull it again, but if I can pick up the slack easily then I do so until it feels crisp. In a typical sheet metal application, I crimp each one twice. In the attached video, the metal sheet is actually folded in half from below, making it thick enough to take just one shot. Hope that helps!
